In one line - Franzininho is a development board based on ATTiny85 MCU. This board is very famous in Brazil. It has two onboard LEDs. All the 8 pins are connected to a connector which is brought out. In summary, it is a low-cost development board that helps in unleashing the mighty power of ATtiny85 MCU!
In this project - you will learn how to connect a DS1307 RTC module to the Franzininho development board. To display the time on the LCD segments, you do not have enough pins on the ATTiny85. Hence, you will use two 74HC595 to expand the GPIOs
